New banner - again!!!

And this time, it's MUCH better! My dear Kendra showed mercy with me, and helped me out - even though I know she is working hard right now finishing off the July releases at The Character Cafe. Yeah, I know, she is sooooo sweet!

I should NOT be sitting here, I should be at a bbq party. But ever since I woke up 5.30 am the rain has ben pouring. ALL THE TIME. So we had to postpone. Sigh. Well, that means an evening with Kingkong or an evening in my scraproom. Decisions, decisions....

Here is the card I did this morning. It's for the Friday Sketchers challenge this week. Fab sketch and a FANTASTIC prize from Motivet. You should check it out.

I tried a distressed look and I've used the last pieces of some of my absolute fav papers - Basic Grey, Prima and MM. I'll miss them!


The assignment this week for the Photo Challenge over at APiT has been portraits. That is a though one, since my DS is not very cooperative. Last time when I wanted to take his photo I tried with threats, but that totally FAILED, this time I tried bribes. Much better. But it was hard anyway. He has this photo smile... These are my two fav portraits.

Most of the time he looked like this (despite the generous bribe):

It's not easy. Not easy at all! LOL!
